CENTRALIA ITEMS.



DR.. w. II. Russell has opened a dis
l,ensary at Seatco, and will divide his
time between the two towns.
There are strangers in town by the
score, and were they Ill to remain
there would be- almost famine here
until the next crop of wheat.
Thos. Symons, liveryman, is about
to run IA stage between here and Mon
tesano. Mr. Agnew is thinking OF en-
gaging in a similar business.
Mr.. Abel, of Contralia, has gone to
Elma with the intention of bringing
UP his steamboat. If he succeed, it
will be wonderful blessing to the
settlers along the Chehalis banks.
One thing our little, spicy Neus
makes a great mistake in. True,
brother, We have no saloons, but call
round the corner once in a while.
The thirsty will always find relief.
Last week, a miner, employed in the
mines at Seatco met with misfortune
He Was thrown from IA car and had
his left arm broken. DR.. Russell re-
duced the fracture. Mr.. Coates has a
young daughter now under his care.
John Peel has gone to Chehalis to
help buckingham Bros. in their mill.
They are Overcrowded with work
This speaks well for the boys, but
those who have ever seen their work
know that it is meant not to be out
done by any one.
Onr host, Mr.. Richards, has gone to
Tacoma with others, representing the
G. A. r. Posts in this county. Mr..
Richards has been seriously indis-
posed during the past week and We
hope to see him return looking better
for breath of the sea breeze.
Read the local columns in the Cen
tralia NeWs. What a wide-awake town
this must be. Mr. ROwell is the man
We want, and though We don't pay the
wherewithall fer that spicy little paper,
we will do it and that soon, and wish
long life to the paper and editor.
Tuesday, April 10Th, nine-pound
boy was born to the wife of DIR. J. B.
B. McNutt, lately OF Texas, but for the
last few months resident of Lewis
county. The advent of the little fell
low causes smile of satisfaction on
the face of the generally sedate doctor.
Mr.. Tom Kennedy, one of the own
ers of the sawmill near Seatco, called
to see us last Saturday. He is running
from daylight to dark, and will no
doubt be rich while the rest of us are
struggling to get out of debt. Re-
ports are good all through Lewis
county.
Last Saturday, Sidney Ward, an en-
ployee of the shingle factory here, came
very near being launched into eter-
nifty. He stepped upon a moving
shaft which carries the cutoff saw.
The set-screw caught his clothing
throwing him backwards and tearing
overalls and pants completely off.
Had he happened to fall forward
death would have been certain. His
pocket-book was thrown from his
pocket hitting man on the leg who
was coming up the street. ~.

The Partisan asks the STANDARD
why it was that the opposition of Mr..
Voorhees, to Gov. Semple, on the
ground that he was railroad man"
was withdrawn. We do not know that
this paper is privileged to speak for the
gentleman, but we presume that the
same reason that was given by Re
publican Representative in the next
Legislation to the query how he could
vote against woman suffrage when his
party had declared for in, will apply.

THAT the tail sometimes really wags
the dog, in political matters, as has
been claimed by the STANDARD, is de
monstrated by a recent application fol

publican Receiver did not want q
change. So it seems that the wires

Armour BoycOtts Boycotters with Great
EigOr and success.

CHICAGO, April ia special from
Akron, Ohio: Armour, the Chicago
pork packer, has won big victory
over the knights of Labor and sixty
meat market men by bringing the lat
ter to terms. About four weeks ago a
committee of knights of Labor mott.
fed the butchers of this city that they
must not sell Armour's meat in future.
The butchers complied with the re-
quest, and n carload of Armour's meat
on the track spoiled. Armour subse-
quently came here and vainly tried to
sell his meat. About ten days ago he
opened three retail markets in the
city. 1t was predicted that he would
get 10 trade, and the opening of the
markets was attended with much ex-
element, but, contrary to prediction,
hundreds OF people, including Knights
OF Labor, went to the markets and
bought meat, which was retailed at 4
cents per pound below local prices.
Aiken butchers to-day agreed to buy
Armour's meat, as before, if he would
withdrawn his retail markets, which
will be done. Armour's representa-
tive said his employer did not wish to
be aggressive or mean, but he did not
propose to let local butchers boycott
him in the manner they did.

WASHINGTON, April 17.-Represen-
tative WOrthington, of Illinois, says
business in the West is much dis
turbed by the unexpected effect of the
interstate commerce laws. He things
it quite likely that the long and short
haul clause will be repealed. Talking
with members from the South, he has
found that the disturbance in that
section is as great as in the West. He
thinks people everywhere have been
disappointed. Making allowance for
exaggeratiOn of the evil in the start,
he thinks that the fact remains that
the provisions of the fourth section are
injurious to business interests,

Bastardy Act constitutional.

Among the decisions handed down
by the Court Of Appeals on Wednesday
was one sustaining the constitutionality
of the bastardy law. Judge Miller
wrote the opinion, which WAS concurre d
in by Judges Alvey Bryan, Yellott and
Robinson, Judge Stone dissenting. The
Circuit Court OF Frederick county held
the law to be constitutional in the case
of the State vs.. Plus |. Plunkard.-
Plunkard's attorneys took an appeal,
holding that rs the bastardy law appll'
ed only to "white' women, 1t was IN
opposition to the fourteenth amendment
Of the constitution Of the United States
and therefore invalid.
Judge Miller's opinion is quit c
lengthy and strong, but the following
paragraph quite effectively disposes Of
the bearing Of the fourteenth amend
ment on the case:
at is conceded that at the time the
statute was enacted it was within The
power of the Legislature to pass such q
law. Does, then the fourteenth amend.
ment annull it or prevent its enforce
ment? The provisions relied on as
having this effect are those parts of the
second clause Of that amendment which
declare that, no State 5 hall make or en-
force any law which abridge the privl-
lcges or lmmunities of citizens Of the
United States, nor deny to any person
within its jurisdiction the equal protec,
tioel OF the laws 1t was decided in the
slaughterhousa cases, &c Wallace, o6.)
that the first clause Of tins Amendment
was primarily intended to confer citi-
zenship on the negro race that the sec,
ond protects from the hostile Legislation
of the States the privileges and immu-
mites of citizens of the United States
as distinguished from the privileges and
immunites OF the State, and that the
paragraph which forbids a State to de.
ny to any person the equal protection
of the laws was clearly intended TO pre-
vent hostile discrimination against the
negro race A more recent case is that
